To the poster about the mortgage, grow up. You probably don't know the whole story and even if you do, have some respect for a fellow human being not to run a smear campaign to satisfy what seems to be some personal vendetta.

I would be willing to bet Justin King is saving other parts of the speech for things like pregame videos before 2001...which would be awesome. Can you imagine how pumped up the stadium would be if you heard him before the team came out?

I have a feeling J.K. will really improve the game day and pregame experience, if we can get the place close to full for some big games, it will really make a positive impression on young recruits who are on the fence.

If we're going to invite people in to talk to the team about responsibility I'd hope that they would be able to handle the minimum of their affairs. He makes the value of the house twice over a year. No reason to not meet your obligations.

Wow really???? that 's about CS to bring here in this thread. Why don't you call him and explain your feelings about his financial situation dude. Hope you get invited to .....NM. SMDH. So i guess he OWES YOU $ . Man you are a piece of work dude. SFB attitude here folks.

If you are going to criticize, at least spell his name right. It is "Duce", not Deuce. Duce as in the Italian word for Duke or Leader.

Missing payments, possibly getting foreclosed and hurting his credit is a dumb financial move, but nothing else. If I wanted to walk up to a stranger and give them a $100 bill, that is irresponsible, dumb, and hurts my finances. But it does not mean I have a character flaw.

Duce is an ex Gamecock football that played in the NFL, was a sideline reporter for years, and now works in the NFL for the Philadelphia Eagles. He is 100% Gamecock and just gave the team one hell of a pep talk and all you can do is bust on him for his financial affairs that you have no idea about? He could have made some bad investments, he could have hired the wrong person to help him take care of his finances, there are a number of reasons that he could have got into financial trouble. And last time I checked getting your house foreclosed isn't a criminal offense.

Between that and having an actual DJ, I am looking forward to see how the experience improves.

I had a professor (who works for athletics) this past semester ask about the game day experience and how it could be changed. She mentioned that a DJ at the time was "in the works" so I'm glad it's coming

I'm also really excited about Justin's videos. If anyone hasn't seen any of his work, check it out. He also made some stuff around 2010-2012.

About Staley - his finances are none of my business so I won't comment on that. He seems like a cool dude and had a hell of a speech.

That's fair. I would prefer a speaker to not have that over their head if they're going to preach responsibility.

Maybe I get banned for saying this, but this whole string posts win the douche bag of the year award. There is ABSOLUTELY no call for character assassination like this. Unbelievable. I hope the moderators step up and delete these posts, as they add nothing to this subject.

There's also a new video chronicling the day on the lake the team had last week. It is amazing as well, in a different way. The guys looked like they had an amazing time. I'd put it here if I knew how to. It's over on TBS for anyone that hasn't seen it.
